Vintage Character Puligny-Montrachet (village) in 2021 and Domaine Thomas Collardot’s “Les Houlières” capture a classic Chardonnay expression of citrus precision and stony nuance.
Tasting Profile & Food Pairing The 2021 vintage in Burgundy was heavily shaped by severe spring frost and elevated disease pressure, a combination that often produced smaller crops and wines that lean brighter and more taut; in the glass, that translates to aromas of lemon zest, green apple, pear and white flowers, with subtle creamy lees notes, hazelnut and gentle baking spice. The palate is dry and medium-full, with medium-high acidity, a sleek texture and a chalky, flinty finish. Serve it alongside roast chicken and thyme, seared scallops, or buttery sole meunière.
Winery Background Domaine Thomas Collardot is a Puligny-Montrachet grower focused on terroir-driven Chardonnay and a transparent, balanced style. Details vary by cuvée and year, but the aim is typically precision and freshness, using attentive harvest decisions and élevage that supports (rather than masks) site character—often through measured oak influence and time on lees to build texture while keeping the wine’s mineral detail clear and defined.
